1.0 out of 5 stars Vocabulary List for Débuts, August 10, 2007

By 

French Student (Arlington, Virginia) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Listening Comprehension Audio CD (Component) to accompany Debuts: An Introduction to French (Audio CD)

This CD provides the pronunciation for the vocabulary lists in chapters Preliminary through 22 of the Siskin/Williams/Field textbook, Débuts. As such, it wasn't what I needed; I was searching for the Student Audio Program to accompany the workbook for Part 2 of Débuts (ISBN-13: 978-0-07-322869-3; ISBN-10: 0-07-322869-9). As it turns out, Amazon does not stock this product; one needs to go directly to the publisher (McGraw-Hill) at 1-800-338-3987, set up an account, and order a copy. This was a bit of work, but McGraw-Hill had plenty of copies in stock. I've given the CD only a single star rating because all of it is included in the Student Audio Program; thus, there is no need to purchase it if one opts for the complete set of 11 CDs.
